We are currently at the Toronto Pearson Airport. We should arrive in Calgary around midnight (mountain standard time).
Yesterday, we sped through some popular tourist attractions in Berlin, most of which we got into for free with our Legoland passes because they have partnerships throughout Europe.
We visited the Brandenburg Gate and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. The girls and I went to Madame Tussauds wax museum while Liam stayed outside with Dean because Dean thought it would be too spooky. We all went into the big beautiful Berlin Cathedral together.
Then Liam went to the Neues Museum while the rest of us went to Sea Life and to Little Big City.
In Germany, it is required to wear a mask while in public buildings and on public transit.
